Last week I was lucky to be invited to attend one day at the Battle for the Dragon competition, which is part of the Welsh International Culinary Championships, held this week at Llandrillo College.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a bit late this week for my entry for 52/2012, mainly because the weather hasn&#8217;t been great. Yesterday I managed to get out along the coast, weather was fantastic, lovely sunny day, reasonable temperature for winter. Anyway I managed to capture this bird sitting on the rocks. I think it&#8217;s a young Golden Plover.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mikehardisty.wordpress.com&amp;blog=21685205&amp;post=3504&amp;subd=mikehardisty&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
